YS-GH High-Efficiency Retarding Water Reducer (Powder & Liquid)

Suitable for various types of concrete such as those for summer use, large volume, and pumping. It reduces water usage while maintaining slump, allows for on-demand retardation, enhances strength, saves cement, reduces hydration heat, and improves durability and pumping performance.

Product Details

Ⅰ. Product Standards

Complies with GB 8076-2008 "Concrete Admixtures" standard.



Ⅱ. Application Scope

1. Weather & Supply: Ideal for hot-weather concreting and ready-mixed concrete (RMC).

2. Special Structures: Suitable for mass concrete, lean concrete, and cast-in-place bored piles.

3. Construction Methods: Applicable for slip-form construction, pumped concrete, and mineral-admixture concrete.


Ⅲ. Performance Characteristics & Technical Specifications

1. Safety: Non-toxic, non-flammable, non-corrosive, and maintains stable morphology.

2. Steel Protection: Contains zero or negligible chlorine ions, ensuring no corrosion to reinforcement bars.

3. Low Alkali: Na_2SO_4 \le 18\%. Low alkali content prevents Alkali-Aggregate Reaction (AAR).

4. Workability & Strength:

  • Water Reduction: \ge 10\%. Significantly increases flowability with a slump of 180mm–220mm.

  • Slump Retention: Minimal to zero slump loss over time.

  • Strength Boost: Increases 3-day strength by 20%–35%, 7-day by 15%–35%, and 28-day by 10%–30%.

  • Cement Saving: Saves 7%–20% of cement while maintaining constant strength.

5. Setting Time: Extends setting time by 2–15 hours (or longer). Retardation can be customized through testing based on client requirements.

6. Pumpability: Air content < 4.5%, improving workability for easier pumping.

7. Durability: Significantly reduces the heat of hydration and delays the exothermic peak. This helps control thermal cracking, enhances density, and improves long-term durability.


Ⅳ. Recommended Dosage

Powder: 1.0% – 4.0% of the total cementitious material weight.

Liquid: 1.5% – 4.0% of the total cementitious material weight.


Ⅴ. Instructions for Use

Optimization: The specific compatibility and dosage should be determined via trial mixes according to project materials and requirements.


Ⅵ. Addition Method

Liquid: Typically added with the mixing water. For better results, add later in the mixing process or stir in just before pouring.

Powder: Add directly into the mixer with the binder. Extending the mixing time slightly is recommended for optimal performance.


Ⅶ. Packaging, Transportation & Storage

Packaging:

  • Powder: Double-layer packaging (inner plastic liner, outer woven bag), 25kg or 40kg net weight per bag.

  • Liquid: Available in drums or tanks.

  • Logistics: Protect powder from moisture/bag breakage during transit. Ensure liquid containers are sealed to prevent leakage.

Storage:

  • Powder: Store in a ventilated, dry warehouse. If clumping occurs due to moisture, it can be used after passing a 0.63mm sieve test to re-determine the dosage.

  • Liquid: Store in a cool, dry place; avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight.

  • Shelf Life: One year. Product may still be used after the expiration date if it passes re-testing.
